Looks like some serious laminations on the obverse. Streaking on the reverse is also a sign of improper alloy mixing - fairly common on these War Nickels.
Inordinately fascinated by bits of metal with strange markings and figures

Improper alloy mix and related lamination very common to War Nickels.

Well on the good side - you have about $1.85 worth of silver content.
